> Retry policy for admin APIs
> ---------------------------
>
> Key: HBASE-20408
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-20408
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Admin
> Affects Versions: 3.0.0, 1.3.3, 2.0.1
> Reporter: Divesh Jain
> Assignee: Divesh Jain
> Priority: Major
>
> Admin APIs, but not all, should automatically retry to ride over master
> failover scenarios. This should be implemented as closely as possible to
> existing retry strategy for client APIs, using common code, perhaps
> refactored.
> Note we are not retrying if the API call returns a failure indication. We are
> retrying if communication between the admin client and HMaster has been
> interrupted, or the HMaster has failed over. We are only retrying until we
> know the result status of the request.
> Not all admin APIs are safe or can be made idempotent.
